I think we’ve done found out what happens when we let the greediest, dumbest, and rapiest folks run the country. It is definitely not “A more perfect union”.

If the lil Mike Johnson and Chip and their ilk are going to “claim Christian nation” why is no one asking how their policies promote that belief? I’ve read that book and well 0/10 for upholding the teachings.

I know we’re resigned after so many years of it but for real, social media giving high-ranking elected government officials the ability to harass individual private citizens by name for an audience of millions as a recreational pastime is actually Caligula shit if you think about it
The Vice President of the United States used his social media page to tell Joy Reid, a private citizen with no connection to the government, that she should express "gratitude" for how this country has treated her.
Black women remain the most consistent targets in all of this.

To be fair, if we had prevented his nazi ass parents from immigrating here it would have saved this country a lot of trouble and crime.

Stateline spoke to nearly a dozen firefighters, agency staffers and contractors, who said that top officials assigned to the fire deployed the crews to a remote location under false pretenses so federal agents could check their immigration status.

Hate to be the plus side to a situation, but since it turns out that ICE is mostly Proud Boys, at least some moms get help with their rent? I’d hope.

Public lands are just that: public, and owned by the taxpayer. Republicans want to auction them off to the highest bidder to pay for their billionaire tax cuts. Hell no.
Federal lands in Oregon, other Western states could be up for sale under budget proposal
The sales would not include national parks, national monuments or wilderness, under the proposal that U.S. Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, included in the GOP's tax cut package.

The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.
